The ideal blue water yacht

[Rappey]

do be safe when you pull over for the night and put out the safety triangle to warn others

Would that be a long keeled offshore or a lifting keel coastal triangle ? ?

All this discussion with regard to to bluewater boats and I am surprised nobody has mentioned Amels. Purpose built bluewater cruising boats designed for a couple to sail around the world as an off the shelf production boat. Not my cup of tea but lots of people love them

The articles I read always list Amels, Island Packets, Tartan and Halberg Rassy on their list of desirable Blue Water yachts

Thank you for pointing that out. Obviously the brand of the boat and keel configuration needs to be displayed on the triangle to alert the approaching yacht as to whether it might be in peril of sinking following a collision.
For example:
Long keel; get your affairs in order, make funeral or celebration of life arrangements
Fin (or other); carry on as you were, be prepared to pick up survivors.

Edit: fix autospell

Is it one of those very rare examples of a steel Westerly?

with an encapsulated keel!
